Modern office space (Class A) deliveries in Cluj-Napoca are expected to reach 23,900 sqm this year, 2.4 times higher than in 2018, and remain high over the next two years as well, according to real estate consultancy firm SVN Romania.

In 2020, new office space deliveries in the city are expected to decline by 14% compared to this year, to 20,500 sqm, while, in 2021, they are expected to pick up again, to an estimated 22,000 sqm, according to SVN estimates.
